Burglars target more than a dozen cars in Burbank

More than a dozen vehicles were burglarized early Saturday morning in downtown Burbank, police said, with victims collectively losing nearly $10,000 in cash and property.

No suspects have been identified, but police believe the same individual or team of people may be behind the burglaries, as each vehicle had a smashed window.

Designer purses and sunglasses, laptops, cameras and iPods were stolen from cars parked in the 100 and 200 blocks of South First Street, the 100 block of East Orange Grove Avenue and the 500 block of South Victory Boulevard.

Police urge motorists to secure their belongings in their trunks and remove valuables from their cars.
